Title: Password reset not working on LS-QL/R5
Post by: jasontitus on January 13, 2010, 06:47:25 PM
   

I cannot get the admin password reset on my linkstation by following the instructions given.  Here is an example of what I am seeing - http://jasontitus.posterous.com/attempting-to-reset-the-password-on-my-linkst .

 

Any idea what I am doing wrong?  It starts out with the function button flashing instead of the power button...

You can easily bring your LinkStation Quad back to factory settings with the following steps.

  1. Hold down the power button for 8 seconds. The LinkStation will shut down after about 30 seconds.
  2. While holding down the function button, press the power button. The LinkStation will power on and the function LED will begin to flash blue.
  3. While the function LED is still flashing, hold the function button down for six seconds
